The Burgundy Suede Biker Jacket

(Jacket – Similar, Top – Similar, Jeans – Exact, Shoes – Similar)

I wanted to make this post earlier today, but I have been um-ing and ah-ing over whether or not I should put it up. The reason being I’m having some body image issues with it. I feel like my actual head looks massive and I look somewhat like a bobble head. I’ve been noticing it a lot lately. Everyone says it’s not true, but I’m sure some of you will understand that you can’t help how you feel inside most of the time. It is a shame I feel this way because the actual outfit I really love.

I’m wearing my H&M Burgundy Faux Suede biker jacket and bow tank top, my Bleulab reversible jeans and my Topshop Mary Jane Saffi heels.

It’s a really simple outfit, but I think the bold colours work well together. I did show you these Bleulab jeans not long ago, but on the reverse side, so this is how they look the other way out. I do prefer the other side to this one, but I think they are cute both ways. But yeah, the reason I am posting these photos is because of the outfit, so please excuse my bobble head lol.

    Lovely colours — I think your head looks fine! Possibly the short jacket has a nipping-in effect, flattering to a slim figure…? Which might affect the way you’re looking at your head. I think it’s one of those things where once you’ve seen it, you can’t stop seeing it. Like if you look at your face in the mirror, you see your whole face, but once you start looking really hard at your nose (or your mouth, or any one thing) it starts to look weird… but maybe that’s just me 😉

      I understand what you are saying Lucy 🙂 I do get that sometimes, I guess it can be angles as well, photos are not always accurate of real life, so it could be that too!

          Fixed it now! It’s because you keep clicking reply lol, it only allows I think 4 replies in one section, so that’s why 🙂 But I changed it to allow 8 in one section.

    Oh sweetie you don’t have a bobble head!!! Not at all! You’re gorgeous! But I get it, sometimes we just feel like that and can’t turn that little voice out =X

    I love love love your shoes (I lost count of how many times I’ve said it lol) and I also like the jacket a lot! I’m totally loving burgundy right now…

    Just a question, if you don’t mind, but how tall are you? I’m just curious =P

    Have a great Sunday!
